INTEL CUTS FORECAST AS DEMAND, MARKET SHARE SLIPS

yay intel is down intel is down thats what you get for spendin more money on marketing than r&d!

Don't think you need to worry about them staying afloat just yet.......after all how many years ago was it that people were wondering just how long AMD could "stay afloat" and now look. See how fortunes can change with some good hard work? For me I am glad to see Intel get slapped in the face with this. For too long they have been bullying oems to use intel and now finally people are beginning to see the light and not all of Intel's bullsh#t

They're never going to use HTT, they're going with their CSI-HTT-Wannabe approach, but it's expected to perform on par or below that of HTT.

Ah its not who builds the best chip thats caused this. Intel did admit that AMD took an estimated point (1) out of their market share but that in itself did not cause this number.

There is a slowing of PC purchases world wide that is the culprit. Intel being #1 supplier is first to get the bullet. There will be a trickle down effect in which all manufacturers will get the pinch, AMD included.

Out of all those manufacturers who do you think is better insulated to absorb such a down turn?

if he was then why is his name ratbait

Because that's what he makes all his victims.

~~Mad Mod Mike, pimpin' the world 1 rig at a time oh lol

I thought this was an open discussion about Intel's numbers and AMD's numbers? Thought this was what this thread was about. Mind explaining what I said wrong?

And so WTF is it of your business that I just joined? You treat all people new or old that way?

And DVD I still see you typing with one hand. Must be tiny, use tweezers next time.

Due to the severe influx in quantities of influencial marginially exponentially greater than.... <=== See that, that's you, that's what you sound like

I disagree. AMD has capitalized on Intels faults and marketing schemes. They did this just by putting out a good product and in all reality, word of mouth. AMD has bitten into Intels market share and will more than likely, continue to do so.

Going by real logic, AMD should be the one to "bite the bullet" first. If there are declines in sales as you claim, than AMD should be taking a major hit since they supposedly don't have high sales anyways. Intel, with all the money they have and dominance, they shouldn't be taking a hit as large as AMD. BTW: Still waiting for your response on my Strawberry Shirt dilemma.

Well, I daresay that AMD's production process if somewhat better than the X360, since a large number fo those that were release had defects. I think they can do it, becuase they will be planning to dump off a lot of S-939 era chips soon for the AM2 release.

OUCH! simple yet effective! Whats next Dipers and Bottles?

Anyway, I got to agree with 3M here. Intel being as big could absorb the blow better than a smaller company in a declining market. But AMD has grown! And everybody is saying ( talking about investment Co. and watch dogs here ) that at this pace AMD will take more ground= ( new customers ) and grow, just by takeing Intels market shares= ( prior clients )

And the $10,000 pyrmaid answer is. AMD is kicking Intels a$$ like a rabid dog ! This goes to show that while Intel makes hidden deals ( skype, Dell..etc ), and BS marketing schemes ( where better! ) Amd took them by surprise by provideing a superior product, beating them at their own benchmarks, and last but not least By Word Of Mouth without the ( I'm better than you game. )
AMD actions in this case spoke louder then Intel's words! ...end story

Intel made almost 40 billion in 05 and 35 billion in 04. Don't feel sorry for these guys they are going to be OK. If I remeber amd had about a 20% market share in 2001. Does anybody remember what happened then?
